[BUG] openapi-yaml generator produces invalid output with nested references

[github-mass]

Description

When using the structure described below as input to the openapi-yaml generator, the output is incorrect. The generation does not fail per se, but the output is malformed. There are multiple error messages

Failed to get the schema name

and

Error obtaining the datatype from ref

in the log, pointing to the cause of the problem.

openapi-generator version

Tested using the openapi-generator-cli Docker v7.24.0.
This does not appear to constitute a regression.

Expected vs. Actual

The difference is on the schemata for ArrayOfComplexTypes and NullableComplexType.

Actual:
